Scorpene submarine test-fires missile
The Indian Navy on Thursday successfully conducted the maiden firing of an anti-ship missile from the first of the indigenously built Kalvari class submarines during a test firing in the Arabian Sea.
Mumbai: The Indian Navy on Thursday successfully conducted the maiden firing of an anti-ship missile from the first of the indigenously built Kalvari class submarines during a test firing in the Arabian Sea.
The missile successfully hit a surface target at extended ranges during the trial firing. The Navy termed it "a significant milestone" in the navy's sub-surface warfare capability.
Kalvari is the first of the six Scorpene submarines being built in India. This was the first time a missile was test fired from the boat.
"This missile launch is a significant milestone, not only for the Kalvari, which is the first in a series of Scorpene class submarines being built in India, but also in enhancing the Indian Navy's sub-surface warfare capability," the statement said.
